ApproveThis manages your Maqqie Integration approvals.

Why Approval Workflows Matter in Modern HR

Manual approval processes cost enterprises an average of 5.7 hours per week per employee in lost productivity. For HR teams juggling candidate hiring, contract approvals, and payroll authorizations, this friction compounds daily. Maqqie's Dutch-engineered platform already streamlines workforce management through automated contract handling and payment processing. When connected to ApproveThis' purpose-built approval automation via Zapier, these tools form a complete system for workforce lifecycle management - from candidate vetting to contractor payments.

Strategic Advantages of Integration

Combining Maqqie's employee lifecycle automation with ApproveThis' decision routing creates three concrete business advantages:

• Compliance at Scale: Maintain audit trails showing who approved specific contract terms or candidate labels
• Cross-Team Coordination: Legal approves NDAs in ApproveThis while HR onboards in Maqqie - without license conflicts

A staffing agency reduced onboarding errors by 68% after implementing joint approval gates between their sales team (using Maqqie) and compliance department (using ApproveThis).

Real-World Implementation Examples

Candidate Vetting Automation

When a recruiter tags a candidate as "Technical Lead" in Maqqie, ApproveThis can:

1. Route salary approval to Finance
2. Confirm visa status with Legal
3. Trigger contract generation upon full sign-off

A European tech startup eliminated 3-day hiring delays by connecting Maqqie candidate labels to department-specific approval chains in ApproveThis.

Contractor Payment Authorization

ApproveThis' calculated fields automatically flag invoices exceeding project budgets, requiring secondary approval before Maqqie processes payments. A construction firm prevented $240K in overpayments last quarter using this safeguard.

Technical Implementation Guide

Connecting Maqqie to ApproveThis takes 12 minutes through Zapier:

1. Create Zapier account (if new)
2. Choose Maqqie as trigger app
3. Select "Label Added to Candidate" event
4. Connect ApproveThis as action app
5. Map Maqqie label data to approval request fields
6. Test with live data

Key configuration tip: Use ApproveThis' conditional logic to route Maqqie-based requests only when specific labels like "Executive Hire" or "International Contract" are applied.

Department-Specific Benefits

HR Teams

Cut candidate screening time by 40% using automated approval chains for background checks and offer letters. ApproveThis' email approvals let external recruiters participate without Maqqie logins.

Finance Departments

Maintain budget control through approval thresholds that auto-reject Maqqie contractor invoices exceeding project allocations. Real-time dashboards show pending requests.

Operations Leaders

Reduce compliance risks with audit trails showing which manager approved overtime hours before Maqqie payroll processing. Vacation delegation prevents approval gridlock.

Critical Differentiation Factors

Unlike generic approval tools, this integration solves three niche HR challenges:

• Cross-Border Compliance: Approval chains adapt based on Maqqie employee location data
• Contract-Specific Workflows: Freelancer vs full-time hires trigger different approval paths

A logistics company automated 22 distinct approval paths for their EU/US/MEA workforce using location-based rules in ApproveThis tied to Maqqie employee records.

Overcoming Implementation Hurdles

Common integration challenges and solutions:

Data Mapping Complexity: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to transform Maqqie candidate labels into approval criteria (e.g., "Senior Developer" → $120K approval threshold).

Approver Resistance: Enable email-based approvals so managers can review Maqqie contract details directly in their inbox without new logins.

Future-Proofing Your Process

ApproveThis' Zapier integration supports three critical Maqqie extensions:

1. Auto-create Jira tickets for IT onboarding when approvals complete
2. Push approved contractor rates back to Maqqie for payroll
3. Notify Slack channels when high-priority approvals stall

A media company links Maqqie freelancer approvals to Adobe access requests - full operational visibility from single dashboard.

Getting Started

Three steps to launch:

Final Considerations

While Maqqie handles operational execution, ApproveThis adds governance layers without bureaucracy. The integration shines when handling approvals requiring:

• Multi-department coordination (HR + Legal + Finance)
• Compliance documentation
• Variable authority thresholds
